every_o way_n like_o to_o those_o in_o england_n and_o that_o they_o make_v and_o change_v law_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o this_z their_z parliament_n and_o therefore_o the_o statute_n which_o be_v

only_o in_o relation_n to_o their_o action_n beyond_o sea_n even_o this_o be_v handle_n enough_o for_o we_o to_o lay_v hold_v on_o for_o the_o do_v whatever_o we_o shall_v think_v requisite_a for_o the_o preserve_n of_o our_o commerce_n but_o he_o say_v this_o will_v appear_v unreasonable_a because_o by_o the_o same_o argument_n scotland_n may_v be_v bind_v by_o english_a law_n in_o relation_n to_o their_o foreign_a trade_n as_o they_o be_v the_o king_n subject_n the_o scot_n be_v subject_n of_o the_o king_n only_o as_o he_o be_v king_n of_o scotland_n and_o we_o have_v no_o pretence_n to_o

repeat_v so_o much_o on_o it_o only_o to_o expose_v it_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o judge_n in_o their_o opinion_n by_o the_o word_n subjecti_fw-la regis_fw-la mean_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o if_o they_o have_v say_v subject_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n for_o they_o say_v afterward_o that_o while_o they_o be_v subject_n they_o shall_v be_v under_o the_o admiral_n of_o england_n

say_v no_o more_o to_o the_o rest_n he_o tell_v we_o 96._o that_o in_o the_o reign_v of_o edward_n the_o first_o and_o edward_z the_o three_o knights_z citizen_n and_o burgess_n be_v choose_v in_o

ancestor_n will_v scarce_o then_o have_v admit_v they_o to_o sit_v together_o with_o themselves_o in_o their_o grand_a senate_n i_o hope_v after_o this_o what_o i_o have_v before_o allege_v of_o ireland_n have_v be_v always_o in_o the_o condition_n of_o a_o member_n of_o the_o english_a empire_n ever_o since_o its_o first_o accession_n will_v never_o more_o be_v doubt_v they_o have_v be_v when_o the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n have_v make_v it_o convenient_a admit_v to_o send_v representative_n to_o the_o english_a parliament_n and_o may_v again_o if_o our_o parliament_n think_v fit_a he_o admit_v of_o the_o act_n make_v in_o the_o 17_o 100_o of_o king_n charles_n the_o first_o for_o encourage_v adventurer_n to_o raise_v money_n for_o the_o suppression_n of_o the_o rebellion_n there_o to_o be_v bind_v in_o ireland_n but_o then_o they_o be_v make_v for_o their_o good_a and_o afterward_o when_o the_o act_n of_o settlement_n be_v make_v by_o the_o irish_a parliament_n these_o english_a act_n be_v make_v of_o no_o force_n which_o show_v that_o they_o have_v a_o power_n of_o repeal_n such_o act_n make_v in_o england_n from_o hence_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o our_o

this_o respect_n but_o i_o believe_v these_o english_a act_n be_v not_o repeal_v and_o therefore_o this_o instance_n will_v not_o maintain_v the_o assertion_n which_o he_o raise_v from_o it_o that_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n may_v repeal_v a_o act_n pass_v in_o england_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o affair_n of_o ireland_n the_o act_n of_o king_n charles_n 2d_o 103._o
as_o subject_n of_o the_o king_n be_v oblige_v to_o act_v nothing_o out_o of_o that_o country_n against_o the_o statute_n be_v of_o such_o english_a statute_n as_o name_n ireland_n for_o the_o

this_o opinion_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o such_o statute_n only_o which_o name_n ireland_n and_o as_o to_o this_o statute_n they_o all_o agree_v that_o it_o have_v its_o full_a effect_n upon_o

the_o former_a opinion_n how_o then_o do_v he_o differ_v from_o they_o indeed_o the_o first_o opinion_n say_v only_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v oblige_v in_o matter_n do_v out_o of_o that_o country_n but_o hussey_n and_o cook_n take_v no_o notice_n of_o this_o distinction_n but_o give_v their_o opinion_n somewhat_o more_o general_a cook_n infer_v that_o if_o ireland_n be_v special_o name_v our_o

thus_o we_o see_v that_o how_o great_a soever_o that_o jurisdiction_n be_v which_o the_o king_n in_o parliament_n grant_v to_o his_o son_n john_n he_o yet_o remain_v no_o more_o than_o a_o subject_a

the_o opinion_n of_o the_o judge_n in_o the_o exchequer-chamber_n as_o he_o have_v deliver_v it_o in_o page_n 90_o 91._o they_o be_v consult_v whether_o the_o staple-act_n make_v in_o england_n can_v

the_o particular_a occasion_n of_o england_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o what_o they_o intend_v when_o they_o say_v that_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n
their_o jurisdiction_n be_v much_o less_o than_o that_o of_o ireland_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a jurisdiction_n so_o firm_o establish_v as_o that_o it_o be_v hold_v that_o it_o can_v lawful_o be_v take_v away_o or_o alter_v by_o any_o power_n in_o england_n but_o the_o supreme_a legislature_n and_o that_o it_o must_v stoop_v to_o and_o the_o same_o the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n cook_n say_v of_o this_o distinct_a dominion_n of_o ireland_n that_o notwithstanding_o it_o have_v a_o power_n jurisdiction_n and_o authority_n which_o be_v complete_a within_o itself_o yet_o it_o must_v pay_v
